Abstract

A prenuptial agreement is a contract signed by the bride and groom before marriage to legally establish them as husband and wife. As a contract, this agreement binds both parties and can include provisions regarding the division of property or management of personal assets, so that each party can be separated in the event of a future separation. This study uses a qualitative research method, with a descriptive-analysis technique. Data collection was carried out using a literature study approach. Based on the study conducted, the following are the results of the study. First, Buya Hamka's interpretation of QS. Al-Maidah verse 1, falls into the category of gender-biased interpretation. This can be seen from his interpretation having a tendency towards one of the parties. Second, the feminist or gender-just interpretation of QS. Al-Maidah verse 1, is more oriented towards more just values, especially across genders.

Abstract

This research explores the ecological crisis in Indonesia caused by uncontrolled land conversion, such as deforestation for housing, industry, mining, and palm oil plantations. Every five seconds, the world loses a forest area equivalent to a football pitch, with Indonesia recording the second largest loss of primary tropical forest globally. This phenomenon not only leads to climate instability and natural disasters but also triggers economic shifts and a human spiritual crisis. The urgency of this research lies in the lack of Islamic discourse specifically addressing land conversion as a theological issue that touches on ethical and practical aspects. The aim of this study is to examine the concept of isti’mar (prospering the earth) in the Qur’an as a theological mandate for humanity to restore environmental balance. This qualitative research employs a thematic interpretation approach, integrating Aldo Leopold's land ethic environmental theory and Paul W. Taylor's biocentrism. The findings indicate that isti’mar demands a paradigm shift from human dominance to a partnership relationship with nature. This study proposes an Ecological Restoration Movement through two approaches: renaturalisation, which involves restoring land to its natural condition, and ecological adaptation as compensation for irretrievable land changes. In conclusion, isti’mar serves as a theological foundation for ecological restoration, guiding humanity in fulfilling its role as a steward of the earth through moral and ethical land management.
